- Neudorf Moutere Chardonnay 08. "Rich, intense and complex with strong stone-fruit, grapefruit, mineral nutty lees and classy oak flavours. The best vintages of this label continue to give pleasure after a decade in the bottle. Five Stars, 97 Points"
- Bob Campbell MW, Gourmet Traveller Wine.
- "Neudorf Nelson Chardonnay 2008 - Fresh, ripe and tropically fruity on the nose with a citrusy edge and leesy scent, this is a classy, Puligny-style Kiwi Chardonnay from Tim and Judy Finn on the north-western side of South Island; long, rich, buttery, weighty and leesy, its ripe fruit concentration is ably abetted by subtle oak and trenchant, citrusy acidity. 90/100"

- "Sleek and Sexy -Neudorf Nelson Chardonnay 2008. Neudorf has built an enviable reputation for its Moutere Chardonnay a highly sophisticated and age worthy wine that thoroughly justifies its $55 price tag. This is the Moutere younger (and cheaper) brother but has the Neudorf trademark of elegance and subtle power. It's a great food wine that seems to get better with age."
- Bob Campbell MW - Air N Z Kia Ora Magazine
- Neudorf Nelson Chardonnay 2008 is a sleek, sexy and sophisticated wine with mineral, oak and delicate toasted-nut flavours beautifully interwoven and delivered with a taut yet silken texture. Serve it with oysters and the earth may move a little It makes the best examples look a little… pretty pedestrian.”
- Bob Campbell MW, North & South Dec 2009
- "Neudorf Nelson Chardonnay 2008 - a savoury, nutty wine, slightly oily, or perhaps glycerolic in texture and a deep, creamed nut flavour with tropical fruit, pineapple, apricot and biscuit and a peachy character to the finish. A sensational wine already and makes you wonder just how good Neudorf's top tier 'Moutere' will be".
- Sue Courtney's wineoftheweek.com December 09
- "Neudorf is a stunning, stunning winery and a beautiful place to visit. They have an obsession with quality and they produce superb Pinot, superb Riesling and this Nelson Chardonnay 08 is lean and refreshing and an absolute cracker."
- John Hawkesbury, Radio NZ, Dec 09
- Neudorf Moutere Chardonnay 2007 Nelson ” Lovely burgundian reduced nose (as opposed to a screwcap reduced nose!). Smoky. Quite different from most NZ Chardonnays. Really racy and confident. Well integrated and lovely already though there is sufficient density here to believe in some useful future evolution.17.”
- Jancis Robinson MW 2009
- 2006 Neudorf Moutere Chardonnay, NZ
Magnificently opulent chardonnay with the stylish pure fruit quality and complexity of a white Burgundy, but with the extra dimension of tropical fruit.
- Anthony Rose - Independent, April 2009
- "This medium bodied chardonnay over delivers on value for money with huge flavour concentration – its flavours defy description, erring in the stone fruit spectrum. Think nectarines, white peaches and the smell of rain on river stones…"
- Joelle Thompson, Mindfood, March 09
- "Neudorf Moutere Chardonnay 2007 : Pure, lemon citrus on nose. There is wonderful mouth-feel with really excellent depth and complexity of flavour. Ripe fruit; mainly pure citrussy lemon and mineral notes with really well integrated oak too. Lifted acidity on finish makes this a youthful wine that comes together beautifully."

- "The Finns make some of my favourite New Zealand wines... I drink Judy and Tim's wines with enormous pleasure on a regular basis... I will toast their next 25 years the next time I pull the cork on a bottle of Moutere Chardonnay."
- Tim Atkin MW, The Observer
- "The one Southern Hemisphere white I'd take to a desert Island would be Neudorf Moutere Chardonnay. No other wine has stacked up as consistently against the ultra-snazzy chardonnays of Puligny - Montrachet in Burgundy.
